BERLIN, january l5.-The Vossische
Zoit1,Rg says that the dissolution OF the
Reichstag was decided upon long ago.
70 regrets that the army bin should have
been made the subject of an election
struggle. It says that neither the de-
fensive capacity of the empire nor the
effective strength Of the army is at stake,
Int the right of the Reichstag to plrti-
cipate III legislation.
The 7dgbtdu says the dissolution Of
the Reichstag was foregone conclu-
sion. The German people shed their
bleed at the time Of the foundation Of
the empire, and have a voice in the
completed edifice.
SPECULATION As THE ELECTION or A NEW
KEICHsTAG.
BERLIN, January 15.--Tho disso.u-
ten of the Reichstag has taken no party
unawares. Preparations for new cleo
ton have been actively proceeding ever
since the decisions of the Military Com
mission showed that tho defeat Of tine
Government was inevitable. The num-
Der of seats likely to be severely CON
tested is estimated mt fifty. OF these,
thirty-six are held by Progressists and
fourteen by the Centre party.
All of the other seats are CON
sidered to be firmly held. The
fourteen seats of the Centre party
which are imperilled are situated in
Southern Germany, and were formerly
held by National Liberals. The Gov
eminent may win them back under the
pressure of patriotic excitement which
is running high in the southern States,
Int the general opinion continues TO
tie against the chances of the Govern
ment's obtaining a majority. What
ever may be the result, the Govern
ment will adhere 10 its original de-
mands. If the coming Reichstag con-
films the decisions of the last one Bis
marck may ignore that body and apply
TO a separate Legislature to sanction an
increase of the army. This course is in
Dictated in the passage of his speech, in
which he reminded the Reichstag that
the Emperor is always able as King Of
Prussia to appeal with confidence to
the Plussian Parliament for the means
of guarding the fatherland, or he may
try fer period to rule without the
budget, trusting in the end to obtain a
vote of indemnity.

Smiths Case and the Senatorial
Fight.


[By telegraph 10 the Dispatch.l
INDIANAPoLIs, January I5.-In the
Circuit Court this morning argument
was continued in the injunction pro-
ceedings of Senator Smith against
Lieutenant Governor Robertson. Judge
Tupie's argument occupied nearly two
and a half hours and was considered
exceedingly able and exhaustive. At
its conclusion Judge Alexander G.
Ayrcs said he would withhold his deci-
sion until Monday morningat 9 O'Clock,
There was i'll the courtroom many
prominent politicians of each Of
the two parties The chief point
made by Judge TIrpie was that
the Constitution only provided. for
the election Of Governor and Lieuten-
ant-Governor every few years, and that
in case of death the offices were filled
10y succession; that these four-year-
terms were in the nature Of a reign or
dynasty, and that vacancies could not
be supplied at biennial election, even
though the Governor or Lieutenant
Governor should Immediately die
after induction into Office He held
strongly that there had for this
reason been no election Of Lieu
tcnant-Goyernor Judge Ayres's de-
cision will be followed by an imme-
date appeal to the Supreme Court and
final ruling may be handed down on
Tuesday, but this is not probable. The
present Indications are that two Joint
conventions viii be held, and that the
Democrats will elect Judge Turpic rs
senator, and the Republicans General
Harrison. 1t is not thought the Demo
Gratis of the Senate will unseat more
than one Republican, and it is probable
action in his case will be deferred until
Monday. The senator to be unseated
is \. \. Mcdonald, who is charged
with procuring votes 10y bribery.

that Walter Bingham, the murderer, Is

held there temporarily and very pri-
yately until ali the evidence possible Of
his insanity is collected by his brother,
William Bingham. The latter, who is
a professor at Davidson College, de-
votes himself TO the defence Of his
brother, and not even Willie Cluyerius
could be more earnest in such labor Of
